The Philippines has identified the four new military bases that it will be giving US troops access to. At least one of them will face the South China Sea, paving the way for a greater American presence in key locations in the region. Beijing has accused the US of fuelling tensions. It has warned other countries to be vigilant against being used by Washington. Manila has said the decision to allow a larger US military presence is vital to territorial defence, especially along the main Luzon island's eastern coast. The US and Philippines are expected to hold joint patrols and military drills in April.
